Free Font Detector – Identify Legacy Indian & Asian Fonts
If you have copied text from an old document or website and it appears as random English letters instead of Hindi, Nepali, or Punjabi script, this tool identifies which legacy font was used (such as Kruti Dev, DevLys, Chanakya, Preeti, Bijoy, InPage, Zawgyi, or AnmolLipi) and lets you convert it to clean Unicode with one click.
Why Does Copied Text Sometimes Turn Into Random English Letters?
Before Unicode became the global standard, regional typists used legacy fonts that mapped regional characters directly onto English keyboard keys. When that text is pasted onto a phone or modern computer that lacks those specific font files, the device simply displays the underlying English characters. This detector analyzes character patterns to identify the source font so you can convert it to readable Unicode.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the difference between legacy fonts and Unicode?
A: Legacy fonts map regional letters onto standard English ASCII keyboard keys and require custom font files. Unicode is supported universally across all modern devices without installing extra fonts.
Q: Is my pasted text kept private?
A: Yes. All font detection and conversion runs locally in your browser.
Q: Why does my converted text look different in older software?
A: Software created before 2005 often lacks modern Unicode rendering engines. Modern browsers, smartphones, and word processors display Unicode accurately.
Q: Is my typed text uploaded or logged?
A: No. All text conversions run in your browser's memory without any network transmission.
Typing & font conversion recommendations
Practical advice when working with regional Indian, Nepali, Bengali, and Burmese fonts:
- Verify in Word: After converting legacy text (such as Kruti Dev, Preeti, Bijoy, or Zawgyi) to standard Unicode, paste it into MS Word or Google Docs to verify that all vowel matras and conjuncts display accurately.
- Official Exams & Portals: Modern government portals, court typist tests, and educational boards strictly mandate Unicode. Use this converter to standardize your typing.
- WhatsApp & Mobile: Unicode text displays correctly on all smartphones without installing custom font files.
